No, your right,
the weather looks crap as usual.
I think we should all chip in and buy a big balloon
to get off this god forsaken island.
I'm starting to feel like an extra in LOST.

February 20th for the USA Lunar Eclipse and Saturn Opposition Feb24th explained in two minutes

The times and date on this video podcast are for the United States, but the description is the same for each location the Irish Eclipse Times and Date are very well described by Seanie earlier in this thread.

As this came out late and there is only hours to go I decided to put it in here as opposed to the beginners section where I usually post these.

Someone in Ireland may get a little window in the cloud with a bit of luck

but what a way to go. :)

Brightening up very nicely here. Cloud is thinning and the sun is poking through.
